Djouce dominates the views of the Wicklow Mountains from Roundwood and Newtown Mountkennedy. The Old Irish word dígas is defined by the Dictionary of the Irish Language as 'high, lofty; a height'. There is a Sliab Digsa mentioned in the Metrical Dindshenchas, where the second element is interpreted as a woman's name. This shows that the meaning of dígas was already obscure by the time of the Metrical Dindshenchas (12th century) and a story was probably invented to account for the name.
Djouce is the 93rd highest summit in Ireland.Trackback: http://mountainviews.ie/summit/91/

I need to clarify a comment relating to dedicated bike track opposite Djouce car parks.This is an commonage area called BallyRemon commons and environmental damage here has been severe in recent years. Seeing Motor Bike in the forestry, on Djouce or on these commons diminishes the amenities the area around Djouce has to offer . Trackback: http://mountainviews.ie/summit/91/comment/2585/
